Squinny is a well used local term (meaning moaning, whining or crying)
The worst thing around here is the dialect though. Town is pronounced Tane, for example. It's horrible and set my teeth on edge every time I hear it.

Mallet.
When I was at school this is what we called someone who supposedly didn't have any pyubs. As in "Fuck off, you fucking mallet".
